Very nice place in a great location. Short walk to Kailua beach and close to everything else in Kailua. We had a great vacation there.

Great communication with host. Very responsive. Offered to pick up a few groceries to get us started, since we were coming in late at night. Attentive to our needs. Shower head popped off and had a brand new one installed by the time we returned to the property. Bottom line five star property and host.

I couldn’t be happier with my stay. The owner was friendly and communicative. The property was exactly as advertised: clean, quiet, and ~5 minutes from the beach on foot. I would absolutely recommend this location to anyone considering a trip to Kailua.

Great location! The cottage had absolutely everything you could ask for and more. So close to beach and shopping/dinning. Trica and Eric were very accommodating. Would not want to stay anywhere else on our next visit to Hawaii.

My husband and I had a fabulous stay. The cottage was exactly as advertised. Although we didn't prepare meals the kitchen had everything you could possibly need if you wanted to. Very comfy king sized bed. Beach towels and chairs were very appreciated. The owner was very responsive and helpful up to and during our stay. Just a short walk to beautiful beach and easy access to dining options. Our stay here helped make our anniversary trip very special.

Perfect location
We loved our stay at the Koi Palms Cottage. It was in a great neighborhood location where we could walk to the grocery store, the beach, and restaurants nearby. The bbq grill was great for cooking, and the cottage had everything we needed for our stay. Can't wait to come back!

AMAZING! We had waited two years for this trip and it was beyond worth the wait! The location is perfect - in a quiet neighborhood and only about a 5 minute walk from the beach, and 5 min drive to grocery store and local shops. Tricia and her husband were very helpful in relieving the stress of travel and having groceries already available for us before we arrived. They both gave us the best recommendations to food and activities we would not have found otherwise. The cottage itself was the perfect size, private, and the coy pond was very relaxing.
We will definitely be back and highly recommend!

This was easy to book and We loved it! The place was immaculate and they thought of every detail. We walked a few blocks to the beach every day and enjoyed The residential feeling and the activities available. My favorite place in Hawaii so far (this is our fourth trip and we have been to waikiki, north shore, kauai, maui, and the big island). We definately want to return!

We loved the cottage so so so much. We stayed for our honeymoon, and it was the perfect spot—just steps from the best beach in the country, a short walk into an idyllic little beach town with everything you might need, and just half an hour away from Honolulu. We loved exploring the town and the island from here, but you don’t need to go anywhere if you don’t want to. It is a wonderful place to hang out, nosh, read, nap, and just relax in between your O’ahi explorations. We would love to come back, and expect to before long.

Tricia and Eric are outstanding hosts. My wife and I are world travelers and have stayed at over 100 properties on other travel sites. This was our first VRBO and it was amazing. The property location is a short walk from one of the very best beaches on the island. Kailua is not to be missed, not too far away from Honolulu, but far enough to be more relaxing and have its own great vibe. The neighborhood also has Mountain View’s and is lovely for morning walks with coffee. The cottage is fully equipped with all the amenities you or your family could possibly want. Furnishings are high end tommy bahama style and both the king mattress and pull out sofa are very comfortable (we slept there for a week). I can’t recommend your stay here highly enough.

The property is just as described. The cottage is in an excellent location and just 2 blocks' walk to beach access. The cottage was very clean, well organized, exactly what I hoped for. Easy to cook up breakfast in the morning, lots of ice for the cooler to take with us, kitchen equipment great, washer/dryer perfect size. Loved the beautiful shower -- very nice! We enjoyed the outdoor space in the evenings after beaching all day or other excursions. Very relaxing vacation! Our host(s) were very welcoming and helpful with information about local restaurants -- definitely enjoyed Los Garcias and Buzz's Original Steak. We hope to stay here again.

Koi Cottage
We loved our stay at the Koi Cottage. A wonderful place where you can fall asleep to the sound of the trickling water from the Koi Pond. King bed was very comfortable and there’s a double headed shower to enjoy as well! Would definitely recommend!

Beautiful Hawaii
This property rental was everything we had hoped for & was perfect for us. Located in a quiet neighborhood, close to the ocean & a relaxing retreat. We were surprised to see a bowl of fruit & treats provided for us. We had our own private entrance & porch. The owner provided us with a cooler & beach towels to use. The town of Kailua had nice restaurants & shops that we also enjoyed. We had a wonderful experience & hope to return one day!

Our 2nd Home !
We have been renting Koi Palms for over a decade.. we have Ohana in Hawai’i & returning each year to Koi Palms is our greatest pleasure knowing that our “home” is waiting for us just as we left it;
Trisha & Family have become part of our Ohana..Our comfort is knowing they are there for us.... there is no place else we want to be...

I'd like to stay forever.....
Tricia Gerum is a gem as the owner and hostess. The one ample sized bedroom with an excellent king size was just right. There is a sofa in the living room that could accommodate 2 more guests. The entire abode, including the kitchen and bathroom are thoughtfully and tastefully furnished. We used the beach equipment stored in a small shed next to the house...you could not wish for a better beach - a pleasant 2 1/2 blocks away. Thank you; loved your place.

Great Visit, Great Place
We really enjoyed our visit in Kailua at Koi Palms. The house is clean, well appointed and well decorated. We enjoyed sitting on the patio and listening to the Koi Pond. We got a special visitor on our last day when the owner's turtle came for a visit as we ate breakfast outside. The AC kept everything really cool at night and even with the AC off while we were away for the day, the place didn't get overly hot. We walked to town for several meals and that was quick and easy. We appreciated the beach items they included, but ended up renting snorkel gear because their snorkel gear was pretty warn. We loved being in Kailua and the house is in a really nice neighborhood. The owners left a few welcome items for us and that was really sweet. Nice, spacious bathroom and really well set up kitchen. Great experience overall!

Quick Beach Access--Good Price & Perfect Accomodations
We loved our stay at the Koi Palms Luxury Cottage. It was perfect for the two of us. The location was unbeatable: short walk to Kailua Beach. Three-minute drive to great shopping and restaurants. The Cottage was perfect.

A perfect walking distance for beach and town stores
I rented Koi Palms for my honeymoon and it was perfect. It is located perfectly between the beach and town stores. With a max walking distance of just under 1 mile. If you want to snorkel you can walk 2 miles to Lanikai beach.
The property feels very private with a private entrance and lots of plants to screen you from the main house. When you walk through the private gate the bbq and shed with the beach stuff are to the left and the lanai (the patio and front door) is to the right. Through the front door the kitchen is directly in front of you with the couch, bathroom, and bed room to the right in that order. One bedroom wall is shared with the house so you can hear the people in the main house briefly talking or shuffling things around. There was little to none main house noise. It did not keep me from enjoying my honeymoon.
It was very clean and cozy. They had a welcome basket for us on the first day with fruit, coffee, and flowers. I would definitely comeback here again.

Everything was beautiful. Finding the location was easy. The rooms were clean and the bathroom was stocked with everything we could need. Our stay was short so we didn't use the kitchen or laundry, but they seemed in good order as well.
The only thing that left we wanting was that there was nothing left for us in terms of food. The owners graciously offered to pick up items for us ahead of time, which we would pay back later, but other cottages I have previously stayed in come with a small welcome basket of bagels or muffins, jam, fruit and milk or juice. I think this small addition would make the cottage absolutely perfect.

Best Place So In Kailua
From book in to check in it was a smooth process. Tricia was so professional and courteous. She even extended a discount for military which a lot of places do not do.
We always try to stay in Lanikai but Tricia's place is immensely better. Same type of neighborhood and same distance to the beach which actually is longer so not as crowded.
House is thoroughly upgraded and has top notch bedding, towels and kitchen ware. Big big plus is split system A/C units--one for living room and one for bedroom. Also beach equipment is new and not decrepit like other places we have frequented.
We will not stay elsewhere from now on!
